All The Best Restaurants That Opened In Bali In 2023
\nHot New Tables 2023<\/h2>\n

Yuki \u2013 Uluwatu<\/h3>\n

\"YUKI<\/p>\n

By very popular demand, Canggu-born Yuki<\/strong><\/a> is now bringing its quirky Japanese fusion cuisine to the Bukit. A modern take on the traditional izakaya, Yuki focuses on simple, innovative dishes whilst honouring traditional Japanese cooking techniques as well as Bali\u2019s bountiful ingredients. And yep, all our Canggu faves are here, from the nori ahi tacos with a splash of watermelon ponzu, to the tuna truffle maki roll and the vegan oyster mushroom yakitori. But before you leave, you\u2019ll want to wash it all down with Yuki’s Japanese-inspired signature cocktails. We love the Off To Tokyo with a hint of wasabi and sprinkles of furikake, and the tangy Yukies 2.0 made with gin, calamansi, goji berry, banana, lime and yuzu\u2026<\/p>\n

Bar Vera\u00a0\u2013 Canggu<\/h3>\n

\"Bar<\/p>\n

Freshly opened as part of Pererenan’s boutique Further Hotel, Bar Vera<\/strong><\/a> pays tribute to the neighbourhood bars and bistros of Europe, where stylish patrons unwind over good food, drinks and great company. And with its modern city vibes and Parisian-inspired interiors, it’s the perfect place to swap, share and sample each produce-driven dish, carefully curated using classic techniques, modern twists and local flavours. Think charcoal-roasted chicken, steak tartare with sambal <\/em>and lychee souffl\u00e9 with coconut gelato. It goes without saying that the drinks list at bar Vera is worth a trip alone, where European wines and cocktails are slung from the low-lit bar. And did we mention, Bar Vera is the latest creation from the unstoppable Mason Group? Need we say more…<\/p>\n

Bacari \u2013 Ubud<\/h3>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

So much more than ‘just’ a sublime spot to drink wine, Bacari<\/strong><\/a> is the first wine bar in Ubud where 19 excellent wines are served by the glass using the state-of the art Coravin Wine preservation system. Here you can sip your way through fantastic wines from around the world, ranging in varietals, blends and vintages from the Old and New World. And to complement your French Chardonnay or Argentinian Malbec, a carefully curated ‘Small Plates’ menu has been designed to pair with each glass (this is a list of Hot New Tables after all!). Think olive tapenade on brioche, cured cold cuts, and of course, a selection of aged cheeses too.<\/p>\n

KYND \u2013 Canggu<\/h3>\n

\"KYND<\/p>\n

From Seminyak to Canggu with love (and a whole lotta vegan deliciousness), the island\u2019s favourite plant-based cafe KYND<\/strong><\/a> has finally opened a second location in Canggu. Yep, that means you can find all of your favourite KYND signatures, now in the ‘Gu. Graze on the Insta-famous Paradise Pancakes served with coconut ice cream for brunch, or the buffalo cauliflower wings and the salad bowls for lunch. Come back and make it a peace-zza night with some of the most unique pizza toppings we\u2019ve ever seen, like temperoni, smoked vegan ham and Tandoori cheeken, to name a few. All of this, served up in KYND\u2019s signature tropical-pink interiors…<\/p>\n

Just minutes from both Canggu and Seminyak, Uma Garden is a sanctuary away from the bustle, and with its stylishly rustic ambiance and prime address on one of Umalas\u2019 most trendy streets, it\u2019s fast become the go-to neighbourhood hangout for both expats and seasoned foodies alike. Start the evening with a pre-dinner aperitivo at the stylish indoor lounge as you watch the open kitchen come to life. Then, make your way to the heart of the restaurant where communal tables set the scene for mixing and mingling over honest recipes and wood-fired flavours. Try the 24-hour slow-cooked pork belly, or the Wagyu beef and juicy prawns ember-grilled to perfection.<\/p>\n

Added flavours are courtesy of herbaceous ingredients like galangal and jamu<\/em>, Indonesia\u2019s traditional drink.<\/p>\n

A Mexican night here begins with a primero of guacamole verde, before tucking in to the variety of tacos and tostadas. We love the confit duck tacos and the braised lamb tostada that pair perfectly with the dragon fruit and lychee margarita, or the foamy Pi\u00f1ata cocktail with spiced rum and charred pineapple. Whether you\u2019re in Seminyak or Canggu, it\u2019s always a fiesta at Motel Mexicola!<\/p>\n

We say, swing by early to feast on the Piggy Pancakes for breakfast (signature triple-stack fluffy pancakes with crispy bacon and a drizzle of brown butter and maple syrup) and a cappuccino. The daily rotating salad bar is then perfect for lunch, while dinner time calls for beer-battered fish and chips and a Tokusen Wagyu striploin. Got room for dessert?

Our top tip: come early to catch the sunset on Amici\u2019s ever-green veranda…<\/p>\n

Within its open-air space, thatched roof and Balinese-inspired designs, you can graze on fresh seafood paired with the best locally sourced ingredients and Indonesian flavours. Try the light and delicious seaweed salad with seared tuna and Indonesian-style dressing, kuah pindang<\/em>, and wash it down with a cold craft beer. Our top tip: grab a seat by the beach and sip on a sunset aperitif, before making your way to the main dining area for a tapas-style dinner. Start with the crab spring rolls, and follow with the slow-cooked ayam betutu<\/em> and Jimbaran-style grilled fish. Top off the evening with signature cocktails, like the Gunung Agung inspired by Bali\u2019s tallest volcano, and the Italian Job with house-made limoncello.<\/p>\n

WhiteStone Restaurant & Bar \u2013 Umalas<\/h3>\n

\"White<\/p>\n

From breakfast to brunch and dinner too, WhiteStone Restaurant & Bar<\/strong><\/a> is a cosy all-day dining space in Umalas that specialises in signature dishes from Asia to the Mediterranean and beyond. For late risers, the casual Melbourne-style brunch runs until 3pm, with a selection of brunch favourites like waffles, avocado toast and eggs Benedict. Then, as the day moves into dinner, expect flavours from Indonesia and across Asia, before finishing off with the almost-too-pretty-to-eat desserts, like the Matcha Panna Cotta served with macerated strawberries, poached pear, carrot gel, hazelnut, and matcha ice cream. Wash it all down with a Negroni that\u2019s been given a Rosella twist, or the signature Smoky Topaz with whisky, orange, lemon juice, coffee liqueur and a cr\u00e8me brul\u00e9e syrup.<\/p>\n

Scusa \u2013 Jimbaran<\/h3>\n

\"Scusa<\/p>\n

Bringing the flavours, aromas, and laid-back ambiance of the Mediterranean to Jimbaran, Scusa<\/strong><\/a> is the latest dining destination to open within the newest hotel on the sprawling AYANA Estate, AYANA Segara. Using fresh local ingredients to honour the quintessential dishes of the Med, Scusa transports you to a Mediterranean island with every bite. Think stuffed calamari with sauce vierge<\/em> and confit tomato, or mackerel in carpione<\/em> with garden vegetables and citrus mayo. The chef’s favourite? The pappardelle with lamb ragout, topped with pecorino fondue and sage. And the menu isn’t Scusa’s only impressive trait. The maze-like restaurant (with its arched doorways and terracotta pots) is reminiscent of the winding alleyways of Italy, Spain and Greece, centred by an outdoor piazza, lounge and Italian-style fountain for those all-important alfresco vibes. All of this is then topped off with a wine list featuring the best red and white Mediterranean varietals, and exclusive wines from boutique vineyards throughout Italy and Spain.<\/p>\n

And psst -CORK doubles up as a wine shop, so you can also take home a bottle of your fave!<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re chasing hidden beaches, the hottest new restaurants, or authentic cultural sites, you\u2019re getting trusted advice from someone who truly knows and loves Bali.","knowsAbout":["Bali travel","food","luxury hotels","Indonesian culture"],"knowsLanguage":["English","Indonesian"],"jobTitle":"Editor & Director","url":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/author\/louise\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146731"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/103394"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=146731"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146731\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":188781,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146731\/revisions\/188781"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/168386"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=146731"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=146731"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=146731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
